I took singing lessons, and i must say they helped it took training and effort to overcome a few bad habits. I wished i had time and money to do it again.

Any real goo d singer has to work hard at it, they have to learn breath control, timing, and pitch. then need to warm up and exercise their vocal cords. Then when it is right they can inspire like not other instrument can. Yes the voice is an instrument, and it take a ton of hard work to learn to use it. Yes some have natural ability to start with, but greatness is earned.

Some small children have an ear for music, and can learn a piano or guitar rather easily, but greatness is earned

Same thing!
